Android Question CODE TOO LARGE Error Message

[Sanjaya]

Hi guys,

Thank you Erel for pointing in the right direction - worked BUT THEN this:

Compiling generated Java code. Error
B4A line: 3659
End Sub
javac 1.7.0_76
src\sanjaya\app\calculation.java:10536: error: code too large for try statement
catch (Exception e) {
^
1 error

What does it mean and any way to fix this?

Hello,

Erel said that the limit is 64 Kb set by Java. Were you in debug mode ?
The solution seems to be : break the code in smaller parts

 

[NJDude]

The error you mentioned means the code you have in your TRY...CATCH is too long.

Thank you LEMONISDEAD and NJDUDE for the pointers

Going to try breaking up the code

But this message never appeared before moving the Hard Drive onto a new Computer

Hmmm

This error usually happens in rapid debug mode when you have a very large sub. The Try / Catch block is added automatically so it might be a bit confusing.

The solution is to break it to smaller subs.
